The Pharmacist of Auschwitz. The Unknown Story of Viktor Capesius

The Pharmacist of Auschwitz. The Unknown Story of Viktor Capesius

“The Pharmacist of Auschwitz” is the little-known story of Viktor Capesius, a seller of pharmaceuticals from Romania, who at the age of 35 joined the ranks of the Nazis and in 1943 became the chief pharmacist at the largest death... camp, Auschwitz. Partially based on previously classified documents, Patricia Posner tells the story of Capesius, his flight from justice, and ultimately his prosecution twenty years after the end of the war for numerous murders. However, “The Pharmacist of Auschwitz” is much more than a tale about Viktor Capesius. It is a story of murder and greed, rooted in the dark heart of the Holocaust. A story of people who became war criminals, as well as brave survivors of concentration camps and Nazi hunters.
